Hi,

This UG ref 12227 came up in a local market and I can't find much information about this reference online. I was wondering if it looks OK to your eyes. Hard to tell from the photo but I have concerns about the dial.

Anybody juxtaposing a hand on top of the A, in Universal, in a sale photo is trying to hide something.

Can you elaborate. I'd love to learn something new!

You want to see the full print so no hands hiding text. However I think these are snapshots made by the OP (and not by the seller)

Oh. I thought there was a specific thing to look out for with the "A"

Pointy A, instead of flat top, can be a problem, although there are no absolutes with UG

Poor printing / fonts / outer track spacing …

Looked at the pic of my polerouter and was terrified to see a pointy "A"

Immediately louped it when I arrived home to confirm that it was poor iPhone computational photography artifacting. 😰

They're actually seller provided photos.
